It will fit with w209 body, someone in this w203 forum was using w203 coilover on his w209.

They shared same suspension platform.

If should fit but don't always based it on aftermarket parts. Aftermarket parts tend to make it as universal where OEM market are made to spec. per model. A illtle tiny change can offset the fitment. Using an OEM springs from a C55 V8 might not look right on a much lighter V6 engine. The weight of the V8 engine offset might be a couple hundred pounds. So your front might not drop as much as the rear.
